Players with big egos DESERVE brain damage and the brain damage will continue until they get their egos "under control".

Here I always thought the NFL, with their millions of dollars of "programs" about player safety, was supposed to discourage that.

But I didn't know about the Big Ego Exception.

I found that pretty interesting.  I never knew.

You expect the defense to not tee off on a QB running the ball into the endzone and that QB pulls up and stands tall...ripe for a chin shot?

Yea you haven't been watching the NFL at all for long...back in the 80s and previous(hell some in the 90s) that'd be a soft play....

Listening to the announcers today try to explain how the hit in the head today wasn't a penalty because of the various requirements was sickening. The fact is the league gave notice from day one this season that cam's head is not going to be well protected. Now in 3/4 games he has been hit in the head. Legal hits or not, there is a weakness being exploited at severe detriment to Cam's health. His teammates are being silenced as well as seen in the trai turner taunting penalties. It's bullshit. Some of our toughest guys are being reined in by the league until we comply.

He decided to be a runner and then hot dog it... 

Please point out where on that play he was "hot dogging" it.

He slowed down, yes.  He clearly wasn't aware about what was going on around him, yes.

And for that, assholes like you think he deserves a crown of the helmet to his head.

Does that kind of poo sound good in your head?  Because it sure as hell sounds dumb as fug after you wrote it down.

You do understand the NFL doesn't allow intentional shots to the head with the crown of the helmet against runners either?

Right?

Which "NFL" do you watch where that is allowed?

Or are you another member of "he was dumb ergo he deserves brain damage" crowd?

Considering that wasn't the crown of his helmet we have no problem here...

They showed it over and over again and it wasn't a crown of the head. It was an intentional HEAD shot but not with the crown, which you can do to a runner. You need to ask yourself about the rules and where the crown of a helmet actually is. There will be 0 fines for that too watch...old school football play can't be mad at it...don't fugin walk into the endzone...it's that simple.

You should watch the play again. He was not hit with the crown of the helmet. It was basically the ear hole where the contact was.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
